The local church is meant to be living, growing, distinct, and God-glorifying. Yet many disagree about what a church really is and what it should look like. This study works through seven biblical aspects of the church and, in so doing, helps participants to discover a big-picture vision of the church.

A series of ten 6–7 week studies covering the nine distinctives of a healthy church as originally laid out in Nine Marks of a Healthy Church by Mark Dever. This series explores the biblical foundations of key aspects of the church, helping Christians to live out those realities as members of a local body. Conveniently packaged and accessibly written, the format of this series is guided, inductive discussion of Scripture passages and is ideal for use in Sunday school, church-wide studies, or small group contexts.

Plaque at the Immanuel Episcopal Church (built 1703) — New Castle (DE) 2012Image by Ron Cogswell
The Immanuel Episcopal Church on the Green in New Castle (DE) is located at Strand and Harmony Streets.

Immanuel is located in the heart of Old New Castle, a village of well preserved colonial and federal homes and public buildings. A stroll through New Castle reveals the original capital of Delaware, the site where William Penn landed in America, as well as beautiful 17th, 18th and 19th century buildings – all within a 7-block walk of the Delaware River.

As the colonial capital, New Castle grew in size and stature. Larger houses were constructed, and businesses sprang up to accommodate the judges, lawyers, and other professionals who had business in the capital.

As the Revolution drew near, political debates and protests in the colony were centered in New Castle. Several signers of the Declaration of Independence lived in New Castle – one of them, George Read, is buried in the Immanuel cemetery.

Answer by Jack PI believe the name of the book was ‘Serim’, though I can’t swear I’m right. Book about the Salsbury Plains, as you’ve mentioned. No idea who wrote it.

Edit: Sarum, after sleeping on it I’m not so certain – it had a great deal devoted to the building of Salsbury Cathedral, but it probably isn’t the one you’re referring to. It’s been several years and I read the book you mentioned. This morning I think it might have been Cathedral by Sorenson.
